Describe How to Establish Respectful Professional Relationships with Adults

It is essential to establish respectful and professional relationships with children and young people in the role of Teaching Assistant. There are certain strategies which enable such a valued and trusted relationship be established. A relationship in which a child trusts and respects their TA and feels comfortable in their company, allows the TA to offer a supportive and caring environment in which the child can learn and develop.

Effective communication is important in developing positive relationships with children and young adults because it helps the child to be able to communicate effectively with other people as they grow. Children react better to clear, concise communication and this in turn will help to build better relationships between child and adult and enable trust to grow, which is one of the key elements in building a relationship. It is also important to listen to the child and let them say what they want to say. Do not try to pre-empt or interrupt them. Try to keep your language and explanation simple and to the point. Make them feel that what

During this part of the report, I will be discussing what problems could occur during each phase (pre-construction, construction, post construction) and how you can go about preventing this from

TDA 2.3 – Communication and Professional Relationships with Children Young People and Adults Interacting with and Responding to with Children and Young People

The construction industry is governed by the Building Regulations, which is a statutory instrument which gives the government or local government authority to regulate the construction of buildings. This is supported by approved documents prepared by the office of the deputy Prime Minister, approved by the Secretary of State and issued by the Stationery Office to give practical guidance to contractors when complying with the various regulations. The Construction Design and Management

INTRODUCTION The construction industry is often known as a very highly fragmented industry with a

We reflect on environmental issues learned so far and what has been an influencing factor and has this shaped my attitude. The hypothetical scenario of implementing three programs to solve environmental problems, three stages for each program and what the programs will achieve is also discussed.

1. Response Rate and Category: The main survey questionnaire was personally handed over to the respondents. It was distributed to 50 carefully selected construction industry professionals representing Clients, Contractors and consultants. Completed forms were requested to be collected later. Over a period of time after distributing the questionnaire, 38 responses were received and the composition of the respondents is given in Figure 2.

Constructions project management involves the direct and daily monitoring of all construction activities and tasks, including all the construction methodologies that is being applied, as well as the personnel that directs or guides the project through every single stage or phase of its life cycle. It is pertinent to know that not all constructions jobs might not be successfully completed due to some changed conditions or unforeseen circumstances beyond control like the effects of nature and differing site conditions. Some of the constructions projects get rejected or are abruptly cancelled due to reasons best known to either the contractor or the client as the case maybe, but whatever happens regardless. Proper and effective closure is always needed on all constructions projects.

Pinto and Pinto (1991) advocated that measures for project success should include project psychosocial outcomes, which refer to the satisfaction of interpersonal relations among project team members. Quality. Quality is defined as the degree to which general conditions promote meeting the project’s established requirements for materials and workmanship (Bubshait and Almohawis, 1994). The improvement of quality can reduce the resources and costs that must be devoted to reworking, which, when reduced, increases profitability (Ling et al., 2009). The costs of rectifying defects and reworking have been estimated to be as high as 6.2% and 12%, respectively, of the profit for a construction project (Thomas et al., 2002). Safety. Safety is defined as the degree to which general conditions promote the completion of a project without major accidents or injuries (Bubshait and Almohawis, 1994). Accidents during a project can be detrimental to the project in terms of time, costs and the reputation of the company (Chan and Chan, 2004). Environment. Environmental issues, such as waste management and public nuisance, have been regarded as negative environmental impacts on construction (Shen et al., 2000). Considerable attention has been directed towards finding out how to minimize construction waste and restrict environmental nuisance (Wong and Chan, 2000). Companies invest in the improvement of environmental protection because of cost factors (Tam et al., 2001; Shen

More often than not we find that the client lacks sufficient knowledge that is required for a construction project. It was such client that we had to encounter. The client’s needs were met by incorporating the following processes:

In this section of the report I will detail the problems with the current lack of proper analysing and monitoring of budgeted progress and therefore the process management systems in the construction department and their resultant effects on the organisation.

Construction industry plays an important part as a stimulant in Malaysia’s economy. The Construction Industry Development Board (CIDB) was established as a government agency to facilitate and act as a catalyst to the development, is generally representing the construction industry to the government and the public. (Chan, 2009). According to Hiap (2012), the CIDB published a ten year Construction Industry Master Plan (CIMP) towards the end of year 2007, the aim is to refocus the strategic position and charting the future direction of the industry.

The construction industry is a dominant sector around the globe. It is a key sector that plays a significant role within any country’s’ economy, culture and social development. There are many contradictions in defining the construction industry (Barrie and Paulson, 1992). One of the clearest definitions was by the National Construction Council (NCC), which defined it as a “sector of the economy that transforms various resources into constructed physical economic and social infrastructure necessary for socio-economic development. It embraces the process by which the said physical infrastructure and planned, designed, procured, constructed or produced, altered, repaired, maintained and

A report under the Environmental Planning and Assessment Regulation, 2000 (Mackintosh 2010) would then be developed to consider the EIS and representations made during the public comment period. This report would address each of the representations and provide options for the representations to either mitigate the concerns identified and/or provide further detail regarding any alternative options presented by the person or interest group.
